The chicken didn't cross the road, but still made it to the other side.
Ok, that wins best chicken crossing the road joke ever.
I was on her side until I read the article. She chased this person an unspecified distance in her car, blocked the chicken killer's car with her own, then attempted to open their car door, before settling on macing them.
Fuck that impatient chicken killer but you don’t get to do a road rage for some vigilante justice. This was just two psychopaths being brought together by circumstance.
Nah, fuck that chicken killer FAFO
JURY NULLIFICATION
Deserved... It could be a child instead of chicken.
in this case, this is especially relevant
The woman stopped to let the chicken cross the road, so there was clearly something happening and obviously some sort of reason that this person was stopped in the road, and the driver behind them sped around and hit the chicken. that 100% could have been a pet or infant or child instead
The woman who hit the chicken made the explicit decision to ignore the warnings that were evident, and still hit something. fucking abhorrent behaviour
Yeah you want to avoid hitting children if you can help it. They are really big and make a mess.
I was taught by my driving instructor to not try and avoid smaller animals because swerving or sudden breaking would be more likely to result in a major accident than simply plowing through it. Whereas larger animals medium sized dog for example could lead to a wider accident if you hit them.
that's relevant on the highway, not residential neighbourhoods
You should be aware enough of traffic around you to know if slamming the brakes on presents a significant hazard. (And if you can't react to an animal appearing in the road you're likely driving too fast for the visibility and conditions)

lol, her expression says it all, "Worth it, 10/10 would mace that bitch again."
Might do a little jail time but the chicken killer will think twice. I mean, christ, you live in Key West. Get on island time already.

Sometimes, animals just don't understand how cars works. I was going to work one morning, and a jackrabbit was in my lane...it ran away, but in a way that would ensure it would get crushed if I sped up. It was only after about quarter of an mile that it decided to leave my lane...only to u-turn back into it.
THUMP
Sometimes, life is fleeting, without reason.

It was almost at the other side, you bastard!
It took me coming to the comments to notice that the word in the headline was chicken, not children. I was about to go OFF about those cops.
You still can. They suck.
Ngl, that would likely be me.
Not just because I like chickens, though that's a factor.
In my neighborhood, if you go the posted speed limit going one direction in the section that my house is on, you'd be going slow enough to be able to correct and not hit an animal. Going the other direction, as long as you don't slam the pedal down, it's the same.
So anyone hitting any critter with the possible exception of squirrels is 99.9~% likely to be doing something they shouldn't. I've gotten in altercations about it before because we have not just a lot of pets in the area, but kids. So some fucking moron is going to hear about out when they're showing exactly how fucking stupid they are.
But, I also happen to kinda know all the neighborhood chickens. Not necessarily on a first name, come her for petting basis, but I know which birds live where. Since I also have my own, and would gladly curb stomp any motherfucker that fucked with them, I would likely at least lay hands on a motherfucker for killing any of the neighborhood birds by being a moron. I'm old, but my tolerance for fuckery like that keeps getting lower as I age.
Accidents do happen, but some jackass trying to be all badass by speeding in a residential area can fuck right off and die. And yes, I'm talking about you, Robert, you absolute prat. Jackass. Done told you once. Fuckwit.
Anyway, yeah, chances are high the lady was justified as long as the dude is still alive
And then you wonder, "Why was the chicken crossing the road in the first place?"

The driver who killed the chicken is a shit stain and she will eventually kill someone. Imagine if that a child, elderly person or someone on a wheelchair.
Is this it? Is this the answer?
Aww. That poor chicken.
